Well, do the blatantly obvious check.

sudo su - mt-daapd

Well, that did it.

Whomever built the RPM added the following /etc/password entry:

mt-daapd:x:100:103:mt-daapd:/var/lib/mt-daapd:/sbin/nologin

However, they never bothered to create the /var/lib/mt-daapd home directory. I just changed runas to nobody and it worked like a charm.

Thanks, fizze.
